Had not the only goal of the game been so spectacular one, even a Milan fan, could have been forgiven for struggling to watch the entire match between Chievo and Milan; it was that bad. There was no fire, no flair, no enthusiasm, least not from the visitors. You would not think that they are [...]

It was October 20, 2004, when Milan welcomed FC Barcelona to the San Siro on match-day three of the Champions League. Much like today, both teams were clearly the best two in their group.
